Hohner is a globally recognized brand synonymous with musical instruments, particularly harmonicas and accordions. Founded by Matthias Hohner in 1857, the brand has its roots in Trossingen, Germany. For over a century, Hohner has been a leader in the production of high-quality chromatic and diatonic accordions, catering to both professional musicians and beginners.

While the company's traditional high-end models were historically manufactured in Germany, production has diversified over time. Some entry-level and mid-range accordions are now produced in other countries like China to maintain global competitiveness. Despite these changes, the brand maintains its legacy of German engineering and innovation in the musical world.

Hohner is currently owned by the Hohner Group, which is a subsidiary of the KHS Group, a Taiwanese-based global musical instrument manufacturing leader. This strategic ownership allows Hohner to maintain its historic brand identity while leveraging a robust international distribution and manufacturing network.
